A mechanistic statistical approach to infer invasion characteristics of human-dispersed species with complex life cycle [0.03%]
一种基于统计学的理论模型 推断人类传播物种入侵特征及其复杂生活史的影响

Nikunj Goel et al.
The rising introduction of invasive species through trade networks threatens biodiversity and ecosystem services. Yet, we have a limited understanding of how transportation networks determine spatiotemporal patterns of range expansion. This...

Anthropogenic land use change facilitates disease emergence by altering the interface between humans and pathogen reservoirs and is hypothesized to drive pathogen evolution. Here, we show a positive association between land use change and t...
Social foraging and the associated benefits of group-living in Cliff Swallows decrease over 40 years [0.03%]
四十年间社觅食行为和聚集生活的相关优势随着时间减少——以崖沙燕为例
Charles R Brown,Mary B Brown,Stacey L Hannebaum et al.
Charles R Brown et al.
Animals that feed socially can sometimes better locate prey, often by transferring information about food that is patchy, dense, and temporally and spatially unpredictable. Information transfer is a potential benefit of living in breeding c...
Stable pollination service in a generalist high Arctic community despite the warming climate [0.03%]
尽管气候变暖，以普通物种为主的高纬度北极地区仍可保持稳定的传粉服务
Alyssa R Cirtwill,Riikka Kaartinen,Claus Rasmussen et al.
Alyssa R Cirtwill et al.
Insects provide key pollination services in most terrestrial biomes, but this service depends on a multistep interaction between insect and plant. An insect needs to visit a flower, receive pollen from the anthers, move to another conspecif...
Climate-mediated population dynamics of a migratory songbird differ between the trailing edge and range core [0.03%]
气候变化对候鸟种群动态的影响：边缘种群与中心种群的差异分析
William B Lewis,Robert J Cooper,Richard B Chandler et al.
William B Lewis et al.
Understanding the demographic drivers of range contractions is important for predicting species' responses to climate change; however, few studies have examined the effects of climate change on survival and recruitment across species' range...
Temporal dynamics of range expander and congeneric native plant responses during and after extreme drought events [0.03%]
极端干旱事件期间和之后，扩张种类植物和同属本地植物的动态变化研究
Qiang Yang,G F Ciska Veen,Roel Wagenaar et al.
Qiang Yang et al.
Climate change is causing range shifts of many species to higher latitudes and altitudes and increasing their exposure to extreme weather events. It has been shown that range-shifting plant species may perform differently in new soil than r...
Causes and consequences of pair-bond disruption in a sex-skewed population of a long-lived monogamous seabird [0.03%]
配偶关系破裂的原因和后果：以一种长寿的单配制海鸟为例
Ruijiao Sun,Christophe Barbraud,Henri Weimerskirch et al.
Ruijiao Sun et al.
Many animals form long-term monogamous pair bonds, and the disruption of a pair bond (through either divorce or widowhood) can have significant consequences for individual vital rates (survival, breeding, and breeding success probabilities)...
Parasites in kelp-forest food webs increase food-chain length, complexity, and specialization, but reduce connectance [0.03%]
海带森林食物网中的寄生虫增加了食物链的长度、复杂性和专业化，但降低了连通性

Dana N Morton
We explored whether parasites are important in kelp forests by examining their effects on a high-quality, high-resolution kelp-forest food web. After controlling for generic effects of network size, parasites affected kelp-forest food web s...
Remotely detected aboveground plant function predicts belowground processes in two prairie diversity experiments [0.03%]
基于两个草地多样度实验中远程检测的地上部植物特征预测地下过程

Jeannine Cavender-Bares et al.
Imaging spectroscopy provides the opportunity to incorporate leaf and canopy optical data into ecological studies, but the extent to which remote sensing of vegetation can enhance the study of belowground processes is not well understood. I...
Water and nitrogen shape winter annual plant diversity and community composition in near-urban Sonoran Desert preserves [0.03%]
水分和氮素影响城市近郊索诺兰沙漠保护区冬春季节一年生植物的物种多样性及群落结构
